Which of the following canals irrigate the Sri Ganganagar region of Rajasthan? (Choose the most appropriate option from below)
Answer: B
The Sri Ganganagar region is irrigated by the Gang Canal.
The Gang Canal was built by Maharaja Ganga Singh of Bikaner and opened in 1927. It takes water from the Sutlej at Hussainiwala near Ferozepur and irrigates the Sri Ganganagar region, which it turned into one of the most productive farming areas of the state.
The Indira Gandhi Canal mainly serves the districts further into the desert, the Bharatpur canal draws on the Yamuna system for the east, and there is no major 'Hanumangarh Canal' irrigating Sri Ganganagar.
